How to make a human feel motivated
Autonomy
Good:
Provide choices, choices and more choices.
Machiavellian:
Make people think they have choices. When people figure that out, they will feel manipulated.
Relatedness
People like to feel connected in the areas that matter to them.
Dealing with how your people feel.
If they feel sad, make them happy.
If they feel happy, make them happier.
If they feel happier, make them feel happiest they've ever been.
Competence
Providing with opportunities to demonstrate competence, whatever they may be (the area doesn't matter).
When any one need is not met, people can feel incomplete, unsafe, insecure. The needs are just about universal, from monk to engineer to executive.
Provide these things and people will feel good around you.
Provide these things to yourself and you will feel better about yourself.
